Applied to be a programmer in the RAF Reserves. Just need to explain to my parents that I won't be in any danger. They have always told me not to join the army, however since I will only be working on the technical side of things it should put their minds at rest.

(08 Feb 2015, 11:19 am)Jimmi Yeah I know about the 572, I've looked at actually riding the service before too by getting a Scarlet Band 95/96 from Barry to Middleton-In-Teesdale then jump on the 572 there back to Barney. I would miss a photo of the 79 but I'd probably do two trips over the summer with one focusing on the 572.

Yes it's definitely worth going when the majority of things are in, as you can clear a lot in one go!
Another trip worth doing is Richmond on a Thursday lunchtime, as Hodgsons run the 79A on a Thursday alongside the regular 79, plus you've got all the Dales & District stuff calling between 1230-1330.

Ah right, keep meaning to do Richmond too, especially since the X26/X27 became MAX.

I tend to like going by myself as I can decide what time I want to go out and what I do over the course of the day. Also I sometimes I can completely change my mind as to where I want to go or if I even want to go out or sometimes I wake up and think I think I'll go to Barney for example.

Although if I want the company I will send you a PM.

I've had a bit of a crappy week, although it has been a pretty good weekend - went out to a gig in Newcastle last night which turned out to be a pretty good night.

Today is a nice simple lazy day for me and I have a fry up to look forward to for my tea tonight and Top Gear is also on tonight as well.

Now I will get to laugh at what people will reply with as I am making a post in the happy thread.

Drone technology will probably reduce the need for RAF personnel to physically participate in potentially dangerous operations in the not-so-distant future.

Guard duty and patrols SHOULD be the only time RAF personnel need to get their hands mucky on the front line, apart from RAF Regiment guys.

Apart from air crews.

Top Gear & Dragons Den. Ideal having something decent on a Sunday night!

Next time you do a Saturday gig, give the Bier Keller on the Bigg Market a try. Loads of people have said it's a quality night out, but I'm yet to try it!

Got 73% on my chemistry test today. Honestly don't know how I did it. 4 hours of revision and about 2 hours of sleep must be the secret formula!

However, on the downside, I found out on Wednesday night there is some GCSE presentation by some of the heads/deputy heads (we have 8!). Mainly for parents but kids can go.

I think I'll find it interesting I just hate how awkward it is when you're sitting in the theatre like in assembly and instead of your friends all you see is parents...most awkward thing ever!
